About this user

They have sold more than 15 million records
They have performed around the world in front of millions of rabid fans
They have been treated like royalty in their home country
And chances are youve never heard of them.

That is about to change.

Introducing Kaka, Bimbim, Ridho, Abdee and Ivanka: the members of Slank, Indonesias biggest band.

Slanks uses its music to promote P.L.U.R. (peace, love, unity and respect) between the worlds diverse religious, ethnic and economic communities. — Bimbim

Despite Slanks immense popularity throughout much of the world, the bands members are looking forward to their biggest challenge yet: breaking through in the United States. As Bimbim admits, Slank welcomes its return to the musical underground and is willing to do whatever it takes to be established in America, even if it means building its following one Slanker at a time. (If you have not already figured it out, a Slanker is a loyal Slank fan, the equivalent of a Grateful Dead Deadhead.)

The first step in meeting this challenge: Anthem For The Broken Hearted. The bands first English-language record, it is 10 tracks of catchy hard pop that blends Slanks appreciation for artists as varied as The Rolling Stones and Bob Marley. Featuring the inevitable hits I Miss You But I Hate U, Drug Me Up, and Too Sweet To Forget, this disc is certain to attract fans of bands like Sublime, Jet, and Buck Cherry.

While some vocalists will attempt to overcome language barriers by spending endless hours painstakingly recording lyrics syllable by syllable (in hopes that a producer equipped with Pro-Tools can turn it into a coherent song), Kaka had little trouble singing lyrics that had been translated into English by a band friend. English is the second language of Indonesia, he explains, and I speak it fluently. I have to credit Blues, however, for preparing us for when we entered the studio. Unlike some veteran American and European artists who have been branded sell outs by their fans for altering their creative approach, Slanks legion of adoring fans has stood firmly by its decision to record in English. They fully support our desire to become more popular internationally, says Bimbim. They realize that more successful we become around the world, the more attention we will focus on Indonesia.

Despite the positive vibe and uplifting lyrics of Slanks previous albums, Anthem For The Broken Hearted indicates an abrupt change in mood. Not so, counters Bimbim. We come from a third-world country and were just starting to learn about democracy, he says. The things we have witnessed in our country lately have left us broken hearted. But we hold on to hope.

In a recent interview with The Jakarta Post, the drummer said there is a need for a complete, ground-up movement [in Indonesia] that fights corruption, both legally and culturally. Although it might seem like a distant dream, Slank has hope that this dream is inching closer [to becoming a reality]. This country will improve only if its leaders come from a younger generation. Maybe Slank should form its own political party". The name of this political party? Perhaps The Blue Generation, which is how Slank refers to the youth in their home country. Explains Bimbim: We call ourselves The Blue Generation because we want to think as wide as the blue sky and as deep as the blue ocean.

Although the current and the most popular incarnation of Slank has been together for more than a decade, the bands roots can be traced back to many years before when Bimbim formed Cikini Stone Complex in Junior High School. That short-lived band evolved into Red Evil. [Red Evil] was nicknamed Slengean, which is roughly translates to Come as you are, the drummer explains. You do not have to pretend to be someone else; just be yourself. We shortened the word to slang, changed the g to a k and took it as our name. Despite Slanks commercial success, personal issues have threatened to tear the band apart, proving the pitfalls of rock stardom are universal.

Weve experienced our share of problems, admits Bimbim, but weve been clean for some time and now weve working closely with our government on a number of anti-drug initiatives. Having withstood these trials and tribulations has only made the bands resolve to break through to American audiences stronger. Are the Slanks members ready for this daunting challenge? Were ready to take things to the next level, explains Bimbim. Oh, and it wouldnt hurt if we earned some money, he laughs.

Are you ready to become a Slanker? This amazing band is getting ready to make its mark on the States when it returns here late in October. More information and upcoming tour dates check out Slanks official Web site, YouTube, MySpace, and Friendster.
